I wanted to share this old postcard. I was researching cabbage pictures (you’ll find out why in our next issue of Greenwoman Magazine) and this certainly caught my eye! Those long days in the northern hemisphere can really bring forth the big ones.

Wow, awesome photo! Would you happen to know anything about the source?

I’m working on a book about state symbols (Geobop’s State Symbols) and would love to use that photo in the Alaska chapter. I just need to find out who I can request permission from – or if it’s in the public domain.

Hi David,
Thanks! The source is an old postcard, I’m guessing ’40s or ’50s. On the back it reads “Alaska Scenic Post Cards – J & H Sales – Anchorage, Alaska”. It’s probably not in the public domain, so you might try seeing if you can find out more from J & H Sales. I couldn’t find a website, but here’s the info from their Facebook Page: Address
1520 Karluk St.
Anchorage, Alaska 99501
Phone (907) 272-7736
GOOD LUCK! (Let me know what you find out.)
